DIANE
=> What they say |
| Woody
Allen |
|
"I’ve
always thought she was born to be a movie star." (Rolling
Stone, June 30, 1977) DK, p. 1

"Tony
(Roberts) and I couldn’t stop laughing at Diane. It was
nothing you could quote later; she couldn’t tell a joke
if her life depended on it. Tony tried to figure out one time,
what it is she does. He says she has this uncanny ability to project
you back into an infantile athmosphere, and you are suddenly a
kid again. There is something utterly guileless about her. She’s
a natural." (Skow, John. “Love, Death and La-De- Dah.”
Time, 26 Sept, 1977 p. 71) DK, p. 13. |

"If
in some way I’ve contributed to bringing Diane to the
attention of the public, it satisfies me more than anything
else I’ve done in films." (People, 26 Dec, 1978)
DK, p. 17

"Her
personality is so large, it’s hard to see anything else
on the screen. It’s like your’re dancing with Fred
Astaire, and you may be a decent dancer yourself, but your eye
goes to Astaire. Your eye goes to Keaton. She has such a natural
gift, she eclipses everyone." (Decurtis, Anthony; “Woody
Allen: The Rolling Stone Interview”. Rolling Stone 16 Sept,
1993 p. 48) DK, p. 116 |
|
"In
real life, Keaton believes in God. But she also believes that
the radio works because there are tiny people inside it."

"I
think I’ve finally reached a point in life when I’m
learning to control my own restlessness… both in my work
and with women. Maybe with Diane, more than with any other woman
I’ve been involved with, I’ve learned that it’s
not necessary to keeep running after something else." (Gittelson,
Natalie. "The Faces of Diane Keaton". McCall’s
Nov. 1978) DK, p. 62

"I
loved Diane Keaton … she made me laugh and made me cry
…. If she had not made Reds, I do not know what I would
have done". (Parker, John. "Warren Beatty: The Last
Great Lover of Hollywood." New York: Carroll & Graf,
1994) DK, p. 62

"Miss
Keaton, I know that public expressions like this can be embarassing
and that my chances of speaking with you in private are at the moment
excellent, but I do want to tell you that you make every director
you work with look good...and I think what they're trying to tell
me here tonight is that I'm no exception". (During his speech
after Reds Oscar) DK p. 68 |
